Description

Join TheDCH staffer Jacque Williamson for a presentation on rainforest conservation in Malaysian Boreno. This photo journey through jungles and down rivers touches on the impact that deforestation is having on sun bears, orangutans and other primates, pygmy elephants, clouded leopards, salt-water crocodiles, and other wildlife. Virtually meet organizations that work with local communities and global researchers to protect the remaining rainforests, and learn about critical field work taking place at the Danau Girang Field Centre.
